Export it from Tgrid and not from Fluent.

Thanks Joern.... tgrid doesn't Export abaqus format. ICEMCFD cannot read in the NASTRAN file from Tgrid properly and also cannot read in Fluent file

What cell types do you use? Are there any pyramids? The nastran format can not deal with these elements. Otherwise you should be able to use nastran or patran format to exchange meshes.
